Ok. I'll shorten the output to the relevant details: > *llist jobid=385 JobId: 385 > FileSetId: 7 > FileSet: avocado-files and > *llist jobid=534 > FileSetId: 8 > FileSet: avocado-files The fileset has been changed, and, as I learned just recently, what you have in the File= clauses. Bacula keeps a hash over that in the catalog, and when it notices a change it creates a new fileset. You can override that in the fileset resource. The name will remain the same, but the ID will change.
